TYPE AFFILIATED COMPOSITION & DESIGN
Learn everything you need to create compelling and effective hand-lettered compositions.
By the end of this class, you will be what I like to call a “self-reliant lettering artist” meaning that you will have all the tools and the knowledge to confidently go forward to create work that is unique, beautiful, meaningful, and well designed.
Whether you’re brand new to hand-lettering or excited to learn how to take your work to the next level this class is for you!
Over the course of the class, we will be covering topics like balance, hierarchy, layout, variety, consistency, negative space, flourishing, and more! I’ll even be sharing some of my best business practices that I use when creating compositions for clients as a freelance artist!
The course consists of step by step videos with clear, simple teaching that you can watch over and over again. As part of the course, you will get a downloadable workbook that we will use throughout each of the lessons.
Other than the workbook, all you need is a pen or pencil and a ruler, no fancy expensive tools required!
And that’s not all!
When creating this class, it was super important to me that there be a level of accountability built into the lessons.
I wanted to be sure that you as a student were receiving the support and feedback that you need to become an awesome lettering artist, which is why at the end of each assignment there will be a place for you to upload your work!
At the end of each lesson, you’ll be able to submit your work and get positive, constructive feedback in the form of a video directly from me on how to get even better!
Check out some of my past student's work in my Instagram Stories.
I am so excited for you to join me in this lettering course! Let’s get busy creating some compositions!
